Schlemmer Japan Co.,Ltd.

Schlemmer Japan Co., Ltd. stands as a premier provider of high-performance protection systems for wiring harnesses, primarily catering to the rigorous demands of the global automotive industry. The company’s origins trace back to 1954 with the founding of Schlemmer GmbH in Germany, a pioneer that defined standards in cable management. To better serve the Japanese market—one of the world's most sophisticated automotive hubs—the company opened a liaison office in 2003 and formally incorporated as Schlemmer Japan in January 2006.

The core of the company's product portfolio is its advanced corrugated tubing and protection components. In modern vehicles, wiring harnesses act as the "nervous system," transmitting critical data and power. Schlemmer’s products, ranging from convoluted tubes and manifolds to specialized connectors, ensure these systems remain functional under extreme conditions involving heat, vibration, and chemical exposure. Their technical excellence is characterized by innovative material science and ergonomic designs that simplify assembly processes for Tier 1 suppliers.

A pivotal moment in the company's history occurred in 2020 when it transitioned to become a strategic member of the Fengmei Singapore (Ningbo Schlemmer) group, part of the NBHX (Ningbo Huaxiang Electronic) conglomerate. This acquisition integrated Schlemmer Japan into a vast global network with immense manufacturing capacity in China and across Asia. Today, the company benefits from a unique synergy: German-engineered precision combined with the agile and cost-effective production capabilities of a leading Asian automotive group.

Operating from its headquarters in Shin-Yokohama, Schlemmer Japan manages a sophisticated logistical network. With the Chubu Sales Office in Mie Prefecture and dedicated logistics centers in Yokkaichi and Shimizu, the company ensures seamless delivery to major domestic manufacturers. Despite its lean organizational structure, Schlemmer Japan maintains deep relationships with industry giants such as Sumitomo Electric, Yazaki Corporation, and NGK Spark Plug. Their business model is built on "Front-Loading" engineering—collaborating with clients during the early design phases to provide customized, integrated solutions rather than off-the-shelf components.

The corporate philosophy, "Close to Customer," is not merely a slogan but a operational directive. It reflects the company’s commitment to rapid response times, transparent communication, and localized technical support. By maintaining local inventory and quality control standards that align with Japanese "Monozukuri" (craftsmanship) expectations, Schlemmer Japan bridges the gap between global innovation and local reliability.

As the automotive landscape shifts toward Electrification (EV), Connectivity, and Autonomous Driving, the complexity of vehicle electronics is increasing exponentially. These trends require even more sophisticated shielding and routing solutions. Schlemmer Japan is at the forefront of this evolution, developing next-generation protection systems that contribute to vehicle weight reduction and enhanced safety. With a global backbone and a local heart, Schlemmer Japan continues to be an indispensable partner in the evolution of the Japanese automotive supply chain, driving the future of mobility through engineering excellence.
